IMPROVEMENT IN UNIVERSAL JOINERS.

Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 180,735, dated August 8, 1876; application filed April 25, 1874.

To all whom it may concern:

Beit known that we, ELIAS STRANGE, EM- EEsoN G. STRANGE, and ELIAS W. STRANGE,

State of Massachusetts, have invented an Improvement in Universal Joiners, of which the following is a specification:

The invention will rst be fully described, and then pointed out in the claims.

Figure 1 is a side elevation of our improved lathe. Fig. 2 is a top view. Fig. 3 is an end elevation. Fig. 4 is a section of the tailstock.

Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts.

A represents a circular saw mounted on one end of the live-spindle B, at the side of the stock C, opposite to the center D, and projecting a suitable distance beyond the stock to make the room required between it and the saw for the work. E represents'the saw-table, which we arrange on suitable supports F. G represents the jigsaw, arranged at the other end of the lathe, being mounted on the rock-levers J, one of which is connected to a crank-shaft, K, which has a small pulley or roller, L, on its opposite end, and is arranged to be let down on a driving-pulley, M, to be revolved by friction or by a belt. This saw is also provided with a table, N, ar' ranged on supports O. The pulley-shaft P is ext-ended the Whole length of the lathe. The treadle Q is also extended and connected to4 the pulley-shaft at each end by a crank, R,

so that it can be worked at the ends and all points along the lathe, to allow the operator to work at either machine.

S represents the tail-screw. It is fitted directly in the bore T ot' the stock U. V is a wheel-nut iitted on the screw, between the two nprights. The stud-pin W in the tailstock U, working in a slot in the center, prevents it from turning.

Having thus described claim as new and desire Patent 1. In combination with a turning-lathe, having a rotary spindle, B, extended beyond the rear of the headstock, a circular saw, A, fastened to the rear end ot' the rotating spindle, with the table E adapted to the saw, so that the lathe may be used for sawing and turning at one and the same time.

2. A turning-lathe bench, with head and tail stocks C and U, in combination with a circular saw, A, on the rear end ot' the lathe'- spindle B, with saw-table E Aon the lathebench, and ajig or reciprocating saw, G, and table on the rear end of the lathe-bench, the whole constructed and arranged substantially as shown and described, to operate at the same time by the same pulley or crank-shaft.

our invention, We to secure by Letters ELIAS STRANGE. EMERSON C. STRANGE. ELIAS W. STRANGE. Witnesses:
